Abstract:
[Problem] To achieve a system wherein power of an arbitrary electrical appliance can be monitored and controlled by remote control, and to achieve power saving without sacrificing convenience. Further, to achieve a system wherein power is controlled in accordance with the consumption pattern thereof, by recording and analyzing monitor/control information. [Solution] A power monitor/control system is constituted of: a power strip comprising outlets onto which electrical appliances are to be connected, a power monitoring/controlling device for monitoring/controlling power to be supplied to each of the electrical appliances connected to the outlets, and a wireless communication apparatus; a gateway comprising a communication device for communicating with the power strip, and an internet communication device; and a center server comprising an apparatus for recording monitor/control information transmitted from the power strip, and a device for relaying control signals for supplying power to the electrical appliances connected to the power strip, which are given thereto by a remote controller. For electrical appliances that can be remote controlled using infrared, the power monitor/control system is constituted by further adding an IR blaster thereto.
